Aerospace Applications for Aluminum Honeycomb Core Panels

Dependable System Engineering is available to assist you with your next project.

There are 3 primary points for the use of aluminum honeycomb core panels in the Aerospace Industry:

1. They are lightweight to allow for optimization of aerodynamics.
2. They are very strong to ensure safety of the personnel & handle the physical challenges of flight.
3. They are heat resistant to keep the structure stable during flight & withstand the extreme fluctuations in temperatures during high speed &/or high altitude flight.

Aluminum honeycomb materials also provide these additional properties which are highly desirable in Aerospace applications:

1. Very high strength to weight ratio (up to 30x traditional laminates)
2. Will not absorb moisture & thus resists mold & fungal growth
3. High resistance to heat & shear forces

As an OEM, Dependable System Engineering is the worldwide leader of honeycomb core composite structural panel machinery.  We have been working with aluminum honeycomb for over 40 years helping companies improve their quality & productivity.  Visit our website, DepSysEng.com, or call us at 941.351.6330 for additional information.
